Balkan League Basketball

Samokov will host the 2013 edition of Balkan League Final 4. One of the participating teams - Rilski sportist - will have the honor to organize the semifinal and the Final games from April 19th to 21st.

Rilski sportist is the first champion of the regional tournament, and Samokov was the host back then, to the debute Final 4 of the Balkan League, in 2009.

The decision about the host was taken on a Friday meeting between the Executive director of the Balkan League Mr. Asen Hristov and the Sports director Mr. Shay Shtriks. They weighed the two offers - from Rilski sportist and KK Kumanovo 2009 - and chose the Bulgarian option.

"After a lot of discussion and sharing of opinions Mr. Hristov agreed with the proposal of Mr. Shtriks because the league thinks that the president of BC Rilski Sportist Mr. Petar Georgiev supports the tournament and will continue to do so in the future. That was one of the reasons for this decisions which was by no means an easy one," says the official announcement on the Balkan League website. "Mr. Hristov and Mr. Georgiev both think good about basketball and the fact that BNT - the official TV partner of EUROHOLD Balkan League, will broadcast all four matches also influenced the decision. At the end of the day Mr. Shtriks managed to get the OK vote from Mr. Hristov and EUROHOLD Balkan League can officially announce that Samokov will host the Final 4 2013."More information about the schedule, the clubs, the media and all the guests will be available after Monday.
